Visual Inspiration: A Filson Jacket, Up to Dry

It's enough to make a city-bound guy yearn for a little time in the country. Sure, it was shot by NYC-based photographer Mikael Kennedy in Brooklyn, not some sliver of unspoiled northern wilderness, but Filson makes us think of time in the great outdoors, and this picture of the brand's tin cloth field jacket hanging up to dry has us thinking that we should probably plan a camping trip (or at least a hike) for the near future. It's also a good reminder for anyone who owns a waxed jacket that you need to let them rest naturally after a good soaking. Trying to speed up the process with proximity to heaters, radiators, and the like is murder on the fabric. And when a coat looks this good, you want it to last forever, right?
